Armature was recently thrust into the limelight when Reddit users discovered that the studio listed Metal Gear Solid HD Collection for PlayStation 4 in its portfolio. Just as speculations began, Armature shot them down by stating that the listing was a “typo” made by the studio’s web developer. The error has now been fixed.

Whatever Armature is working on next is still a mystery. The studio is currently look for a gameplay engineer, generalist engineer, graphics engineer, and a game designer. The job descriptions provided don’t reveal much.

Armature recently developed Dead Star for PlayStation 4 and ReCore for Xbox One. Both titles were also released on PC.
